Absolutely amazing...you produce vignettes at an incredible rate...and they get better and better!!!

Top marks for the composition, great painting and attention to detail. Chipping on the medic's helmet just perfect, rubble and debris realistic and colours matching perfectly too...wow!!!

If you just allow me (I tend to be a nuisance, I know)....there are a couple of points that I'd care to mention:

first...(yet again, sorry) the metal parts on the rifle..!! Better paint them black and highlight them just a little. NMM is certainly to be considered when it comes to such small bits.

second....I would personally paint the wounded guy's face a lot paler and more greyish. Moreover, he would be sweating with the shock.

The guy kneeling was taught to press "anything available" on the wound, in order to prevent all the blood from running out...so why isn't he doing just that??

Just kidding!!

Oh yes, and make sure the red crosses are sewn on, not painted! because if they are, the black lining would not be appropriate. But even if they are, you must be careful about the width of the lining. In real life all these things are 35 times bigger..!!

IMHO you are about to enter the next detail level, i.e. straps and leatherwork from lead foil o.s., etc.

A lot of fun too!!

Keep us entertained (sure you will! )

Gerry! When do you sleep? You just keep pumping these things out. Other than the blood being a little too bright, I like it. Every time you show a new scene, your techniques get better and better. Keep up the good work.

Hi Gerry,

Excellent groundwork! A stunning overall diorama.

I have nothing to add to others' constructive critique although I'll tell you that the expression of the wounded man looks very convincing: resigned pain.

That's a pretty nasty sized hole in his abdomen. Anything with an entry hole that size would take out most of his innards while leaving. In future dio's make the hole smaller, and instead of just drilling a hole, try making the edges of the uniform (around the hole) ragged. You could try a tiny patch of tissue paper on the wound area, work the edges into the uniform until they are not noticeable, and then tear up with a needle point where the actual hole is. Blood, when soaked into fabric, especially dark colored fabric, appears very dark - almost black. When the blood re-appears, ie dripping down an arm, hand. etc., it is normal blood color.
Great concept on your mini-dios/vignettes!

awesome.

What Biggles said.
Remember, the bullet was probably .3 or .45 inches in diameter where it entered. Scaled down, that would be less than .015 inches. As an entry would it will create minimal shredding of the fabric.
Agreed with Biggles as well on the blood. Only Sam Peckinpah imagined blood on dark fabric that red. Alizarin Crimson, a standard oil color, not Donovan's song, would be as bright as you'd want to go. Even on the hands, I'd tone it down significantly.
